When you start a campaign is it equal chance you will begin with Keep on the Borderlands or Test of the Warlords? Is starting with a low level module tailoring the adventure to the PCs? I'm referring to story through emergent play. All the factions, events, goals, and situations you create are...

Well, I certainly wouldn't have anticipated the PCs to attack an orc encampment without proper preparation, but if they did then they would face the consequences. But as I said, I believe one can design an adventure appropriate for the PCs while also letting the dice fall where they may. You...

I think that one can be a fan of the PCs and still be aspire to the goals of the Neutral DM. It's possible to design an adventure with the PCs in mind, but allow events to unfold as the dice fall without showing any favoritism to either the players or the world.

Subtract AC from this number to find what you need to roll to hit. (If you don't mind giving out AC) THAC0 subtracts attack roll to determine what AC is hit. (If you don't) It's not exactly rocket science.

Which OSR games have you found that updated Thieves to be more balanced? I've been thinking of running some 2e, and was planning on reinventing the class myself...

Yeah, I guess MM2 only really sold for 1 year, then dropped like a rock. I was thinking these were more "lifetime" sales at first.

The Dragonlance MC was definitely a weak part of the collection- I don't remember really using any of it in my homebrews. MM2 outselling MM1? That just feels like sacrilege!

If you say so.

Which is exactly the kind of exposition I talked about.

I don't think it adds to the scene, other than explaining what the creature is to people who don't know.

Would the line have been necessary if it had been a normal bear bear? Do you think they would have had to literally ask "what is that?" "A bear"?

The quote is literally explaining what the monster is called.

I'm not a big fan of riddles and puzzles in game. I find that if they aren't solved within a few minutes most players tune out and the game slows to a crawl.

My dragons don't suffer from GERD!

Your wife understanding it was acid has nothing to do with the fact that there will be some guy who needs to tell the audience that it's acid. Just like whenever the Mimic shows up, someone is going to say "It's a Mimic!", or when the tiefling shows up someone will have to say "You know what a...
